In this inspiring conversation released on video by the WGBH Forum Network, Pulitzer prize-winning historian and author of Team of Rivals Doris Kearns Goodwin talks about Abraham Lincoln, the success of his presidency, and the men that made up his cabinet.


Kearns discusses her take on Lincoln's thought processes, what led him to make hard decisions, and why this soft spoken, physically gangly man was ultimately able to command the respect of a nation. Kearns speaks of her subject like she would a friend and gives equal attention to Lincoln's cabinet, a group of one-time rivals that would later become committed loyalists at a time when the country needed his singular leadership.
